Key Printing Notes & Pro Tips

• For High-Speed Printers (Bambu Lab, etc.): To keep up with the high flow rates of modern printers, you may need to increase nozzle temperatures. As a starting point, try increasing the recommended hotend temperature by 5-15°C. This ensures the filament melts completely in the shortened time it spends in the hotend, preventing under-extrusion and maintaining good layer adhesion at high speeds.
• Drying is Critical: Materials like Nylon, PETG, ABS, and ASA are hygroscopic (they absorb moisture from the air).COEX 3D dries every spool before packaging, but keeping your filament dry is one of the most important steps for achieving high-quality, strong, and warp-free prints.
• Hardened Nozzle Required: Abrasive materials like our PA6-CF (Carbon Fiber Nylon) will rapidly wear down a standard brass nozzle. You must use a hardened steel, ruby, or other wear-resistant nozzle to ensure print quality and longevity.
• Use a Release Agent for PETG/PCTG/COEXFLEX: On surfaces like glass or smooth PEI, PETG, PCTG, and COEXFLEX can bond so strongly that they may damage the build plate upon removal. Using an adhesion material like a glue stick or WELD3D also acts as a crucial release agent.
